Testimonials

We appreciate feedback on all of our events as it allows us to continue to improve the content and overall experience for delegates. Here is a selection of comments from delegates who have attended our annual Child Protection conference in the past two years.

The Keeping Children Safe conference demonstrated the excellent work carried out by organisations to protect children from before conception through childhood to preparing them for adulthood.

Angela Hargreaves, Senior Caseworker, Disclosure Scotland

This was a very beneficial and informative opportunity to review current developments within policy and practice and how they will impact upon all of our ability to keep children safe whilst enabling them to access appropriate opportunities and experiences.

Salena Begley, Country Development Manager, Family Fund

This conference was not only interesting but extremely educational. I think everyone would leave with the realisation that it's not one person who is responsible for the safety of a child, it's each and every one of us.

Lyndsay Grant, Managing Director, Little Learners Nursery

Short and to the point, speakers delivered their message. I liked this timing for a conference. Well done!
